Retired General Jack Keane is telling President Trump that it's time to stop playing pat-a-cake with the mullahs in Tehran and drop one final, unmistakable warning before we start dropping the hammer on the butchers running the show.
Keane, a Fox News senior strategic analyst went on Life, Liberty & Levin show and basically said the Trump administration needs to quit with the polite diplomacy and get serious about the regime's ongoing murder spree against its own people.
"The president has told them, 'If you kill them, I'm coming for you,'" Keane said during the Saturday appearance.
According to Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA), a U.S.-based group relying on Iranian networks in that country has reported that at least 538 deaths have occurred, including 490 protesters and 48 security forces members. Other groups, such as Iran International (opposition-aligned outlet) claim at least 2,000 protesters have been killed.
As the nationwide anti-regime protests hit the two-week mark and the streets of Iran continue to burn, Keane is calling on Trump to issue that last, crystal-clear warning, then follow through by taking out some of the top thugs responsible for the bloodshed.
"I think the president could give one more warning and then take down some of the leaders responsible for conducting violence against the Iranian population," he said.
"I believe that we have the leverage here to actually curtail this behavior."
Meanwhile, multiple Israeli sources are whispering to Reuters that the Trump team is actually weighing possible U.S. military intervention. No word yet on whether the Beltway geniuses will finally get out of the way.
The protesters themselves haven't lost hope — some are even carrying photos of exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi, reminding everyone what Iran looked like before the ayatollahs turned it into a theocratic dumpster fire.
Trump himself has been loud and clear. On Truth Social he posted: "Iran is looking at FREEDOM, perhaps like never before. The USA stands ready to help!!!"
At Friday's news conference, he doubled down: "We’ll be hitting them very hard where it hurts. And that doesn’t mean boots on the ground, but it means hitting them very, very hard where it hurts."
Keane pointed out what should be obvious: this is the first president to openly stand with the Iranian people like this, and he gosh darn well better follow through, dadnabbit.
"This president has done that, and I think he will likely have to follow through on it," he added. Over on Fox & Friends Weekend, Retired Navy Vice Adm. Robert Harward went even further, calling regime change in Iran "inevitable."
"This president does what he says. He's made that very clear in Venezuela and other places, so it's going to happen," he said.
"We stand behind the people of Iran. And don't forget what Iran was in the '70s: a prosperous nation that enjoyed all the values and support of the West, so I believe this is four or five decades in the coming. It will happen."

The clock is ticking, the body count is rising, and the Iranian people are begging for someone. anyone, to finally have their back. Looks like Trump might just be the guy to answer the call. Let's hope he doesn't blink.
